How big is this dog going to get?
My 5 1/2 month old female Labrador is 22.9 kilo (3.6 stone) already. She's definitely going to be a very big girl but i wondered if there was any way to predict how big. Also at what age do they stop getting bigger?
Good job i love big dogs!
N.B she's not fat at all - she's a perfect shape and has just had her 5 month vet review. Her brother is also a big boy. I did meet her parents but i can't remember if they were big dogs (i'd nothing to compare them too!)

Larger breed usually stop growing at around 2 years of age. Maybe she is one of the dogs that grow early. Is she very fat because the ideal weight for a Labrador is about 30kg

look at the size of the dogs paws, usually if the dog has big paws, you are going to have a big dog. is she a lab X or pure? if she is a X then you may be able to get a DNA test from your vet to see what the parents were. you can then judge how big she will get but again, the paws are a big clue.
hope i helped :)

If her paws are out of proportion to the rest of her body she still has growing to do
